Cannabis Corner

Cannabis Corner is the first city-owned cannabis shop, located in North Bonneville, Washington, in the United States. The store opened on March 7, 2015, and held its grand opening ceremony the weekend of April 20, 2015.[1][2] Activities included vendor demonstrations and an open house hosted by the city of North Bonneville with staff from Cannabis Corner and Skamania County's chamber of commerce.[2]

Despite receiving national attention during its opening,[3] the shop was reportedly struggling financially by May 2015.[1] By September 2016, Cannabis Corner had generated $2.2 million in revenue.[4]
